Free afternoon parking in Sharjah is likely to end soon with new parking boards being put up across the emirate.

Images of parking boards showing paid parking from 8 am to 10 pm are doing the rounds on social media.

While there is no official confirmation from the authorities yet, the move, if put into place, is in line with a proposal floated last November to end free afternoon parking.

At present, residents enjoy a three-hour free parking period, from 1 pm until 4 pm.

Earlier in 2016, Dubai removed the similar free afternoon parking period starting May 28, with parking hours in the emirate now running straight from 8am until 10pm on working days.
